Hello!
I crashed my mini-z into a chair. And no when i move the steering wheel on the remote controle the wheels doesn`t move. Maybe my servo is broken?

What Mini Z is it (F1, MR01, MR015, MR02, Overland, or Monster)? May just be the steering bar just came off, you will not know till you open it up. And welcome to the forums.

My mini-z is a mr-01. I have opened my car and my steering bar is not broken but it looks like the steering bar has lost contact with the servo.

Thank you ! Hammer, I am sure I gonna have a good time here when people are so friendly to me

It probally did pop out, but if you still have the servo case open look at the gears closely and see if any of them are chipped.

Thank`s man

Hello!
Do you have the catalouge number of that part?

jonionshety · 2005.04.12, 03:30 PM

I found the part I was looking after. I went to my local rc shop and they had a defect mini-z there so he gave me that part free

And I bought the defect car for just 5 dollars!!!!!!! So I have plenty of spare part`s now

Thanks for this thread and those pics ! It was a great help.

I just pulled my Mini - z out of storage, been there for about 3 years. And I couldn't figure out why the front wheels weren't responding to the transmitter, I thought it was a radio problem, I didn't even think of checking the servo box, thanks!
